McDonald’s to invest Rs 100 cr to open 30 outlets

Westlife Development, which operates McDonald’s restaurants in the southern and western region in India, plans to invest Rs 100 cr to open up to 30 outlets of the quick-service restaurant brand in the current financial year. The company, which now witnesses more than half of its sales from convenience channels such as delivery, takeaways and drive-thru, is bullish about growth in FY’22, leaving out the next 2-3 months. Having brought all digital channels in place, the company has entered this second wave with a lot of strength. Despite all hindrances in the market, such McDonald’s outlet expansion move by Westlife Development is a new business opportunity for the signage companies which engage in in-store branding and graphic projects.
